Remote cardiac monitoringPurpose of review:This review offers an overview of the evidence in diagnostic and therapeutic applications of remote monitoring implantable devices. Recent findings:Remote monitoring of cardiac implantable devices has become more and more popular in recent years as healthcare is ...
In some cases, if left untreated, ventricular tachycardia may lead to serious heart complications such as sudden cardiac arrest, stroke, or heart failure. Luckily, there are treatment options available to help you manage tachycardia, including medication, surgery, or routine monitoring. Using a ...
Patients with various types of heart disease use remote ECG (electrocardiogram) systems to measure heart rate, body temperature, respiration rate, and other variables to continuously check for abnormal symptoms. In the past, patients wore cumbersome cardiac monitoring “vests,” which required them to...
device called an event monitor for a longer period of time, if it has been difficult to record changes in heart rhythm. When any type of unusual rhythm state occurs a button is pressed on the small monitor (which can fit in a pocket or on a belt) and that unusual event is record. ...
Even professional golf players can experience a cardiac arrest and need an implantable defibrillator.Hear from Bernard Gallacher and his physician. HOW DOES AN ICD WORK? An implantable cardioverter defibrillator is designed to monitor your heart rhythm 24 hours a day. If your heart is beating too ...

and many other settings. They are designed to be easy to use so that a someone in cardiac distress can be treated immediately without having to be transported to a hospital first. Training is recommended, however, but not required. Studies have shown that prompt treatment with these devices ca...
monitoring devices. Czech Academy of Sciences researchers won first place in the real-time category of the challenge with MATLAB algorithms that can detect QRS complexes, distinguish between normal and ventricular heartbeats, and filter out false QRS complexes caused by cardiac pacemaker stimuli. The ...
One of the most common procedures they perform is cardiac catheterization. This involves inserting a catheter into the blood vessels to diagnose and assess blocked arteries, determine the presence of heart disease, and evaluate heart function. During cardiac catheterization, invasive cardiologists can ...
